Deadly Theatre

  • all theatre that is driven by the needs of commercialism
  • theatre tht follows a set of rules
  • to be deadly does not mean ot is dead- it means it is alive in the wrong way 
  • follows a formula
  • introspective- incular in its thinking 
  • the one thing that is particularly deppresssing about deadly theatre is that it is very alive and well
  • the fact that it is struggeling alone contains one element of hope, a theatre that is alive at all, however dull or deadly, still has hope.


Holy Theatre

  • seeks to transcend ordinary life
  • does not speak to enough people
  •  it is a theatre limited to itself 
  • too narrow
  • too limited
  • not enough people can grasp it
  • too niche 


Rough Theatre

  • any theatre that does not happen in traditional theatre buildings
  • seeks to change society
  • populr theatre
  • source of most renaissances in drama throughout history
  • political and satirical 
  • similar to Brecht
  • opposite of holy theatre 

Immediate Theatre

  • actors are like mediams, totally "in the moment", translating feelingsto the audience who are carried along with them 
  • in touch with their creativity 
  • instant creativity 
  • relaxatin of body and mind
